WHO CAN BE AGAINST YOU?

Hey guys!
Happy Monday everyone.

I hope you had an amazing weekend? Mine was fabulous as I got to spend it with family. I had so much fun playing, eating and just lazing around the house. I love the fact that for a minute, I didn't get to think about work, deadlines, annoying boss, annoying colleagues,.... and all the things that comes with WORK. Lol.

While luxuriating over the weekend, I over heard a neighbor complaining about how things are bad for him and his family, how the devil is fighting them at every corner ..... He talked about being tired, afraid, exhausted and hopeless. For a minute, I paused and prayed for him in my heart. I asked God to help him, send him help speedily and bless him and his household.

SUCCESS IS A JOURNEY

Hey guy's! Hope you are okay?
It's another Monday and I am feeling all type of inspired ..... Is that even a correct sentence? lol

Any road will get you to where you are going in life if you don't care about or give great thought to where you are going. Like the saying goes "The road to success is always under construction" this means we are always consciously working on it .... For example, if your goal 10 years ago was to become a Lawyer. At the time, for you that was considered 'success' now having achieved that, you will set another success goal/target ..... and the circle continues.

PARENTING A CHILD WITH DISABILITY ... PART 2


"How your children turn out says more about your parenting skills than about their struggles, genes or disability" - Sharon Ifeoma

If you have a child with any form of disability like other millions of parents in various parts of the world, you are not alone. Emotions ranging from anger, guilt, confusion, fear, pain, grief, loss, disappointment, rejections, questions, powerlessness etc. as seen here flood your heart. There are many kinds of resources out there to help you along the way and through difficult phase and process. Here are some tips for parents:
  • School yourself as much as possible about your child's disability: Read about the disability there are so many resources online and off line, don't be afraid to ask questions especially clarifications from the doctors on medical terminologies, diagnosis, reports and evaluations on your child. Study your child's progress and keep notes of them. Don't leave the job totally to the doctors.
  • Start early or as soon as you notice that something is wrong: Early intervention is key when addressing the needs of a disabled child. The sooner these issues are addressed, the better the outcome.

PARENTING A CHILD WITH DISABILITY ... PART 1

"How your children turn out says more about your parenting skills than about their struggles, genes or disability" - Sharon Ifeoma

Many emotions flood the heart and mind of parent's when they receive a bad, life changing destiny altering report about their child. For my mum, she described what she felt as 'devastating, heartbreaking and like a sharp knife had just pierced her heart' ..... 'My dad went completely blank, numb and speechless' a position no one should ever be in. 

The feeling can range from denial to fear, grief, loss and anger on learning that your child may / or already have a disability. You tell yourself immediately that this cannot be happening to me.... no not my child .... why? why my family? The confusion journey has just started.
